RLS Snow Removal Division

Hey guys I figured I'd get some pictures of my setup on here. I'm MikeRi24 from over at LawnSite and I own Richardson's Landscape Services. I just picked up ne "new to me" truck yesterday and cleaned it up and got some things in order so I thought I'd post some pics. I plowed a few driveways already this morning and its been working out great!

some things to note: previous owner bed-linered the whole bottom half of the truck which is SWEET, newer style chevy rims, needs a seat cover, the trailer brake controller and plow controller need to be moved cuz i whack my knee on them HARD when I get out of the truck. Other than that I'm really happy. Just gotta remember to plug it in at night....forgot to do that last night and it wasn't too happy with me this morning haha

6.5 Turbo Diesel has had some issues? Hope you have one of the better ones? That 6.5 is known for injector issues? Your plow is gorgeous and the GM front ends handle the wear and tear of plows well. Stay on top of the maintenance on that motor!

I guess its just worn there...nothing a seat cover can't hide! I hate vinyl seats anyway.

I read a lot before making this purchase, and I while a lot of people dislike these motors, 90% of the "problems" can actually be solved and prevented in the future by very easy fixes/modifications. The plow is actually pretty rough...VERY rusty the guy who was selling it just threw a quick coat of pain on it before he sold it haha the rust should be starting to seep back through any day now. I intend to take it all part and sandblast it and re-finish it over the summer.
